Expert Solution

Answer;

Option $110

Explanation;

Present Value of Stock = D1/(1+ke) + [D2 / (ke-g)]/(1+ke)

here,

D0 = $4

D1 = D0 + Supernormal Growth i.e. $4 + 10% = $4.40

D2 = D1 + Constant Growth i.e. $4.40 + 5% = $4.62

Ke ( Required Return) = 9%

G = Contant Growth i.e 5%

so,

Present Value of Stock = $4.4 / (1+9%) + [ $4.62/(9%-5%)] / (1+9%)

Present Value of Stock = $4.4 / 1.09 + [ $4.62/4%] / (1.09%)

Present Value of Stock = $4.04+ $115.5/ 1.09

Present Value of Stock = $4.04+ $105.96

Present Value of Stock = $110
